Waking Hour Release Party!
La Maison Française, Stanford University

Well, okay, it's not really the CD release party -- kind of last-minute, and there will be more in the summer months for those of you who can't make it to this one. I'll be hanging out at La Maison from 7:00 to 10:00 pm, playing a few songs, playing the album in the stereo, with snacks and drinks and pre-finals chillin' to be had by all. Stop by and get your CD! (Autographed, if you want...)

Ireland's 32

[sent to vtnews]

Hi all -

I've gotten some emails asking if the show is still on, in light of what's been going on today. The answer is yes: we'll still be playing at Ireland's 32 from 9 to 11:30.

I'm feeling shaken as I'm sure a lot of you are, but maybe the music and community will be good for people tonight. My thoughts go out to everyone in New York and D.C. (and Pittsburgh as well), especially to your loved ones and to those who are still missing.

Take care,
Vienna

Melissa Rapp is playing this Irish pub again and was apparently told to "bring that girl who played piano last time." I'll be on for the first hour or so, I figure.

The Blue Rock Shoot is changing management, and so is shutting down as a music venue for the time being. Pity.

Saratoga High School
Alumni Benefit Concert

I'll be playing a couple of songs as part of a fundraiser for my alma mater. Tickets are $25, but go toward a great cause: building the performing arts center that the school has been needing for decades. Plus you'll get to hear the names my childhood friends used to call me. *grin*

Here's an image of the flyer for the event.
